As for returning the Functions Handbook -- no way! I've only been working with A5V8 for 2 or 3 months, and I haven't programmed anything yet, but I've already discovered that their documentation leaves a lot to be desired for someone like me.
I'm not a Programmer, but I wrote a pretty extensive dBase application long ago that we're still using, and I still have to look up functions and commands. I'm hoping Alpha5 will be easier than dBase.”
